During the 1950s and early '60s Ed McCurdy was one of the most popular solo singers of the folk revival. Here we focus on four of his albums: 'When Dalliance Was In Flower Volumes 1, 2 and 3' plus 'Son of Dalliance'.
McCurdy was a major influence on many 50s/60s folk groups like the Kingston Trio, Peter, Paul and Mary and more and his LPs and their songs became big campus favourites at the time.
This is the first issue on CD since the original LPs and is remastered for superb sound.
